Evangelist Onyeka Onwenna's comment on 2014-06-28 00:00:29:

The voice of the first sign represent the turning of the rod into snake when God mandated Moses to drop his rod on the ground of which he demonstrated this before Pharaoh and his magicians whereby Moses ' snake swallowed that of the magicians yet Pharaoh hardened his heart. While the second sign is the turning of the hand of Moses into leprosy when God instructed him to put his hand in his bosom. This also represent the ten plagues the Egyptians suffered in the hand of Moses and the eventual setting the people of Israel free after the last plague thereby coming to God 's fulfilment that Pharaoh will definitely hearken the voice of the second sign.
